So setting the caption to > "Unknown bus Unknown device type" is a fall back in that case. Does the <input type='mouse' bus='xen'/> get assigned by default ? Because, for Xen PV the values are getting assigned by default even though the tc did not supply them . Ex: check the vsxml output from the tc 41_cs_to_settingdefinestate.py. The default values are not getting assigned for KVM though.
